Privacy and Cookie Notice

Last updated: 7 November 2026

Thank you for visiting Mindamity. This page explains, as simply as I can, what information I collect, why, and what you can do about it. If anything is unclear, please write to me at hello@mindamity.com.

Who I am

Mindamity is run by Julie Rose McFadden, in Snowdonia, North Wales, United Kingdom. I am responsible for the personal information described on this page, and you can reach me at hello@mindamity.com.

What I collect, and why

When you join the mailing list: your name and email address, so I can send you the emails you asked for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of every email.

When you subscribe to Mindamity Mail, or buy a gift: your name, email address and postal address, so I can post your letters and contact you about your subscription. If you buy a gift, I also hold the recipient's name and postal address, and any gift message you write, so I can send the gift to them.

Payments: payments are handled securely by Stripe. I never see or store your full card details.

When you write to me: whatever you choose to share, so I can reply.

When you visit this website: general information about how the site is used (see Cookies below).

Who helps me

I use a small number of trusted services to run Mindamity. They process information on my behalf and only as I instruct:

  • MailerLite hosts this website and sends my emails.
  • Stripe takes payments and manages subscriptions.
  • Google Analytics helps me understand how the website is used.
  • Royal Mail delivers your letters, using the address on the envelope.

Some of these services may store information outside the UK. Where they do, they use the legal safeguards required by UK data protection law. I will never sell your information, or share it with anyone for their own marketing.

How long I keep it

  • Mailing list: until you unsubscribe.
  • Subscriptions and gifts: for as long as you are subscribed, then for up to six years for my accounting records, as the law requires.
  • Messages: for as long as needed to help you, then deleted.

Your rights

You can ask me, at any time, to see the information I hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it. You can also object to how I use it. Just write to hello@mindamity.com and I will reply within one month.

If you are unhappy with how I have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk, though I would love the chance to put it right first.

Cookies

Cookies are small files a website places on your device.

Essential cookies keep the website and checkout working. These cannot be switched off.

Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) tell me which pages are visited and how people find the site, so I can make it better. They do not tell me who you are. You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings.

Changes

If I change how I use your information, I will update this page and the date at the top.

With warmth, from the mountains. Julie
